Design life goes on even as stay-at-home and work-from-home become our new normal. So how can we support graduating students during this crazy time?
Our friends at Werner Design Werks have organized O-O-O Student Portfolio Reviews — virtual one-on-one portfolio reviews with a select group of design professionals across the country. These portfolio reviews are an opportunity for students to get an honest review of your work and advice on what you need to do to get hired.
Reviews are open to current design students and recent grads (graduating 2019-2021) from across the country. This is a free event. You may select up to three review time slots with various incredible reviewers. The reviews are one-on-one and 40 minutes maximum.
During your review, make the most of the 40 minutes. Be prepared and on time. Introduce yourself, share your work and ask questions. Virtual sessions are part portfolio review and part informational interview. Explain your work and thought process behind it. Be professional and personable and above all show up and be on time.
Reviews take place May 11 – 22, 2020 online via Zoom.
Registration will open up in early May. Check here for more information on student registration.
